China Shifts to Two-Child Policy
中国全面开放二孩
The government of China has announced that married couples in China will be legally allowed to have two-child families as of March 2016. China’s one-child policy, which has been in effect since 1980, has prevented approximately 400 million births. In the past 35 years, many Chinese couples have faced fines for having a second child while others have been forced to have abortions. A relaxed family planning policy does not mean that couples will jump at the chance to have larger families. Single-child families are the social norm in China, and many couples cannot afford to have more than one child due to the high cost of living.
中国政府宣布从2016年3月起允许普遍二孩。从1980年至今，中国实行的是计划生育政策，并控制了约4亿人口。在过去的35年中，许多家庭因超生而遭到罚款，或是选择堕胎。宽松的生育政策并不意味着组建大家庭。在中国，独生子女家庭已经成为了一种社会模式，由于生活费用增加，许多家庭无能力供养多人。
